Thanks all

Janet, no I came off Zoloft about 2 months ago. I had some side effects from withdrawal but those have settled now.

i am just 50 so not sure if pre-menopause would have any bearing on why I'm struggling. Hormones work in mysterious ways.

I have keytosis symptoms: I have reduced appetite, am thirsty and my mouth tastes like I have been sucking copper coins. I can even smell metal on my skin, but nothing on the Ketostiks.

I have a blood monitor and my results over the past few days are:

Date Time Parameter~ Measurement value HCT keytone
12/09/18 07:44 Glucose 5.9 mmol/L 37% 0.3
11/09/18 05:29 Glucose 5.7 mmol/L 28%
10/09/18 11:44 Glucose 6.2 mmol/L 30% 0.5
09/09/18 08:10 Glucose 6.9 mmol/L 40%
08/09/18 16:49 Glucose 6.0 mmol/L 40% 0.1

I havent had the glass of wine for the past 3 days (since 09/09).

Thanks

Jacqui
